Niagara Bill Posted November 10 Posted November 10 3 hours ago, leh-nerd skin-erd said: I’ve previously pointed out the elements of wealth redistribution in the American system as it exists. That was your original hot button issue. In regards to tax generally, I’m a supporter of progressive tax policy, which by design increases contributions as income increases. It has nothing to do with some silly concept like “fair share”, just a recognition that things must be paid for. I’d sure love the tax rate to be adjusted downwards, and would love to see an overhaul where we had some reason to believe waste and abuse wasn’t a problem, but that’s a different discussion. By applying your theory as outlined here, I would have been for the abolishment of all tax or redistributive programs. That’s silly, as silly say as a Canadian citizen declaring the system the best in the world, while private paying for life-changing or life-saving treatment in a foreign land. Carry on.

B-Man Posted 10 hours ago Posted 10 hours ago SNAP Fraud: A $50,000 EBT Card, One Person Getting Benefits from 6 Different States - This Is What Taxpayers Are Funding The Western Journal, by Samuel Short If there’s any good that’s come from the government shutdown, it’s exposing all the fraud being committed to exploit the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. To be sure, there are millions of needy Americans who were hurting from being deprived of SNAP as they tried to support children and keep their families from going hungry. This is not about them. This is about the other people — the individuals who dip into this program unjustly at the expense of the taxpayer. Just the News reported that Department of Agriculture Deputy Secretary Steven Vaden has indicated his agency is engaging in data collection relating to SNAP across several states https://www.westernjournal.com/snap-fraud-50000-ebt-card-one-person-getting-benefits-6-different-states-taxpayers-funding/
